The customer

BTC Group is Russia’s largest light industry holding, specializing in the development, production and subsequent sale of high-tech clothing for various business sectors.

The challenge

In connection with the development of the Russian light industry holding BTC Group, the need arose to create a virtualized data center. The previous data center, given the obsolete workstations and servers, was no longer able to cope with the existing workload and was too costly in terms of user support. The task put to the contractor was to build a new platform, to conform to the BTC Group’s long-term IT system development strategy, which would account for enhanced requirements for safety and standardization and would reduce user support costs.

The solution

Fujitsu was chosen as the equipment supplier for the project implementation, involving servers and data storage systems. Fujitsu has rich experience in the creation of such facilities to meet the custom orders of Russian and foreign companies alike.
